I think it's new to 7.1

Pretty sure it's new for 7.1. I don't remember reading about it anywhere as a new feature though but then that's not much of a surprise. It doesn't look good on a press release to say something that amounts to "We are now including an app to help you figure out what the crap is wrong with your phone".

It's been happening to me whenever I use my Rocketfish bluetooth headset and listen to music on my Torch. It doesn't happen all of the time and I haven't paid enough attention to figure out if I'm doing something specific with disconnecting the headset/stopping the music, etc.

How do we ensure that RIM is aware of the problem and working on a fix?

Mine is fine.. The 9900 first 7.1 leak also had this but I believe its fixed now

One of the other posts I read in another thread indicated that this may be caused by having two audio sources generate a sound simultaneously. Since I have been having the problem whenever I use my A2DP bluetooth headset, I assume that the BT has something to do with it. Yesterday, when using my BTH with the media player, I first switched my phone's sound profile to "vibrate only" so that the only sounds being generated were from the media player. This seems to have worked as the "device media processor is busy" issue did not surface. Hope this is a simple solution until VZW and/or BB can get a fix.

Man, what a mess. I'm starting to think the media player is also responsible for the application memory leaks that I and a lot of people are seeing, but that's another topic. What I have noticed now is that Pausing the playback of any type of media is like rolling the dice. Several times now when I've paused a podcast especially, I've had to battery pull before it would start playing media again otherwise all I get is that error message. And then it did it to me while I was playing a YouTube video. arrggghhhh!!! I'm starting to feel like I'm carrying a tiny little bomb around in my holster. You never know what's going to set it off and force you to battery pull.

Oh, and that device analyzer? Man what a joke. I pulled a brand new 9930 out of the box and decided to try out some analysis on a fresh device. Couldn't even get the Playback OR Speaker tests to work! I tried the same tests on my own 9930 and got the same result. WTF? And the Device Responsiveness test is turning out to be handy for tracking down that memory leak problem I mentioned, but then I realized there is no option to do ANYTHING with that data. I can look at it on the screen, and that's it. I'm ranting now, bye.

well that was weird. I got a message that I had to wait 30 seconds before posting again, which I did, only to discover I had posted the same thing twice. Sorry about that.

Okay, I deleted BeBuzz and that seemed to fix the problem. I then discovered that even though I had updated my new phone settings in the CB Appworld they had sent me the Bebuzz 5.0 version which I had on my phone. I switched over to the 7.0 BeBuzz version on my CB profile page, but have not reinstalled it on my phone.

In addition to the 'media processor is busy' issue being solved the full A2DP bluetooth is working now. I previously was unable to listen to iHeart Radio on my BT headset off my phone, but now that works.

I was never that impressed with the BeBuzz app anyhow so I doubt I'll miss it. Not sure why that app gets so many accolades. A lot of what it does is already possible with the native BB profile settings.

Cool, how do I do disco lights and multiple colors w/o bebuzz?

Stompy · #25 02-22-2012, 02:10 PM

Okay, I'll try removing BeBuzz and see if that improves anything for me.

I've been hearing a lot of good things about "Advance OS and LED" so I guess I'll try that:
Free Advance OS and LED - Download Advance OS and LED - Free Apps from BlackBerry App World

Oh, I was running BeBuzz 5.0.24 (for OS 6.0) on my 9930, if anyone is interested.

This only seems to be happening to me with the YouTube embedded clips. YouTube worked great before, but lately, I cant watch any YouTube Clips. I dont know if 7.1 was the culprit, but it seems to have started around then.

Still having this email issue. Averages about once a week, maybe twice (but im a heavy user of slacker radio). Never happened before 7.1. Only fix is still a battery pull. If an update caused it then i think an update should fix it.

Love this phone. This bug is my only gripe with the software.

Kamika007z · #28 03-02-2012, 11:28 AM

Is it still occurring under 7.1.0.267?

I just updated the OS and will test it. I listen to a lot of songs on my phone via media player and it would get to a point where it wouldn't give me the media processor error, but it would just freeze the phone or when I go to the dial pad it would just move so slow, that only a battery pull would fix it.
